Nothing was said that night.
Nighttime passes very quickly; for Bai Yu, it's as if the blink of an eye turns darkness into dawn.
However, Bai Yu didn't sleep very well. Even when he opened his eyes early in the morning, he was only awakened by the noise of the alarm clock.
There was nothing he could do; he was on a fishing boat now. Not long after he fell asleep last night, the boat started moving to a different fishing spot.
At that time, Bai Yu's sleep was still very light. As soon as the fishing boat started moving, he felt a little awake and was vaguely about to wake up.
Then, before six o'clock in the morning, his alarm clock rang again, waking him up.
With poor sleep quality and short sleep duration, how could Bai Yu possibly be in good spirits?
Even so, Bai Yu still got out of bed, grabbed her toiletries, and went to wash up.
Getting up early has its advantages. At least when Bai Yu went to wash up, he didn't have to queue. There was only one person washing up in the entire washroom.
This person was also a contestant in this competition. After seeing Bai Yu, he nodded to her in acknowledgment.
The other person was brushing their teeth and it wasn't convenient to greet them, but Bai Yu wasn't brushing his teeth, so he greeted them anyway.
After a quick wash, Bai Yu grabbed his fishing gear and a bag of bait, ready to go fishing on the deck.
But as he walked to the cabin door, he saw a sign next to the door with the words "New Competition Rules" written in large characters.
New competition rules?
When Bai Yu saw these four words, he was completely stunned. After all, he was the initiator of this competition. How come he didn't know that there were any new rules for this competition? How come he hadn't been told about this?
However, Bai Yu did not reveal his thoughts. He went to the cabin door and looked at the new regulations on the side. In just a few seconds, Bai Yu knew what was going on.
This new competition rule is essentially just the addition of several new rules, and these new rules will affect the course of the competition, bringing greater uncertainty to this event.
This new rule is a special catch. On the day the new rule is issued, as long as a contestant catches the designated fish, for each designated fish caught, that contestant will receive an additional 10 jin (5 kg) bonus on their score, with no upper limit.
Of course, this rule is not particularly outrageous. At least when selecting designated fish catches, it will not be fish that are particularly plentiful or easy to catch.
For example, today's catch was specifically selected as pomfret.
How to describe this fighting pomfret? It belongs to the pomfret family. Among sea pomfret, it is the most valuable. At the same time, this fighting pomfret also appears in the sea in the form of schools of fish.
However, although these fighting pomfret appear in schools, catching them is not an easy task; otherwise, they wouldn't sell for over a hundred yuan per kilogram.
The pomfret is widely distributed, found in both the southeastern and southern seas of our country.
The area where Bai Yu and his team are currently located is also a frequent habitat for pomfret. Whether they can catch any depends on the luck of each contestant.
After reading the competition rules, Bai Yu knew what the organizers were up to; they were setting a trap for the contestants.
According to the competition rules, each pomfret caught adds ten kilograms to the contestant's score, and the pomfret itself is counted towards the score.
However, the pomfret has a fatal flaw: it cannot be considered a large fish. Even the larger individuals only weigh a few kilograms.
The average weight of a pomfret is around one or two pounds. Even if you add ten pounds, it will only weigh eleven or twelve pounds.
If a competitor targets pomfret, they will need to use small hooks and bait to catch small fish.
Moreover, it's uncertain whether you'll even catch a pomfret, so the risks involved are really too many.
However, if you choose not to fish for pomfret and instead choose to fish for big fish, that's also perfectly fine. You can simply give up the extra points and compete for the championship with your actual score.
Anyway, after Bai Yu came to the deck, he looked around and made a decision. Today, like yesterday, the main focus would be on catching big fish, and fighting pomfret would have nothing to do with it.
He might make a change of plans if a fisherman on deck catches a big fish one after another; otherwise, he's determined to fight the big fish to the bitter end today.
Having surveyed the surroundings, Bai Yu, though unsure of their exact location, knew that the area was utterly desolate, with not even a small island in sight.
Bai Yu could make a bold assumption: the waters they were in now must be quite deep, at least much deeper than the 60 or 70 meters they were in yesterday.
Deep waters attract large fish, and Bai Yu's choice is to target those potentially large fish.
Compared to the elusive and unpredictable fish, Bai Yu prefers to focus on the more practical approach of catching larger fish.
Well, although Bai Yu wasn't sure if he could catch a big fish this time, there was one thing he was quite clear about: there were quite a lot of GTs in the South China Sea.
Yesterday's area was the territory of grouper and sea bream, but even so, the white fisherman still caught some Gt. Now that he has sailed to this new area, he will definitely catch even more Gt.
Bai Yu then decisively took his equipment and went to his fishing spot, which was the same spot at the bow of the boat as yesterday. This spot suited his aura quite well; even with such a low luck level yesterday, he was able to catch nearly a thousand kilograms of fish.
His luck was much higher today than yesterday, so there was no reason for his catch to be worse than yesterday's. Therefore, he chose the same fishing spot as yesterday.
As the sun rose, Bai Yu baited his hook, intending to use squid as bait to fish. He then cast the bait into the sea.
Next, all you have to do is wait, basking in the sun while waiting for a fish to bite the hook.
The sun's warmth on her skin always gave Bai Yu a lazy, sleepy feeling...
